    The restaurant still stands along Don Pedro Street in Poblacion, serving the crowd-favorite Yukgaejang, a traditional Korean spicy beef soup! The Yukgaejang might appear overly spicy, but its rich flavors are more prominent, making it the perfect “hangover soup” in Korea!

    Now, if you want a healthier option to boost your stamina, you might want to try the Seolleongtang Soup with Somen Noodles. This soup, a staple in Korean homecooking, is made by simmering beef bones for three days. Since the flavor is light, feel free to add salt and pepper to taste!

    Aside from their Korean dishes, there are other menu options like Omurice, short for omelette rice, as well as affordable lunch sets and bento boxes.

    They also serve a mean Yangnyum Galbi made with Angus beef and a secret sauce, as well as more Korean classics such as Bean Curd and Seafood Stew and a taste of healthy seafood and classic Korean dish: Pan-fried Seafood with Spring Onion and Leeks.

    Palm Grill in Quezon City: Discover the Bold Flavors of Zambasulta Cuisine
    Palm Grill in Quezon City is a one-of-a-kind dining destination that brings the authentic cuisine of South of Mindanao to Luzon. Established in 2017, Palm Grill proudly serves the rich flavors, vibrant culture, and storied history of the Zambasulta region—Zamboanga, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi—offering diners a rare opportunity to explore Southern Mindanaon dishes without leaving Metro Manila. Known as the only authentic Southern Mindanaon restaurant in Luzon, Palm Grill goes beyond simply serving food. It showcases culinary traditions deeply rooted in Tausug and Zamboangueño heritage, highlighting ingredients and cooking techniques that are not commonly found in mainstream Filipino restaurants. A must-try for first-time diners is the Dulang (Php 1,119)—a specialty tray traditionally served during royal banquets. This curated sampler features a variety of Palm Grill’s signature dishes, making it the perfect introduction to the bold and layered flavors of Zambasulta cuisine. Presented generously and meant for sharing, it reflects the communal spirit of Southern dining. Another standout is the Tiyula Itum (Php 560), a striking black beef soup from the Tausug community. Cooked with lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, garlic, onions, and pepper, its distinctive dark color comes from burnt coconut meat, which imparts a deep, smoky richness. Often described as “Bulalo 2.0,” it offers a comforting yet complex flavor profile that surprises and delights. For something hearty and satisfying, the Beef Satti (Php 300) delivers skewered beef served with a flavorful sauce that perfectly balances sweet, savory, and spicy notes. It’s a beloved Southern staple that captures the bold personality of Mindanao’s cuisine. Through its thoughtfully prepared dishes and dedication to authenticity, Palm Grill continues to champion the culinary identity of Zambasulta. For diners in Quezon City seeking flavors beyond the usual Filipino fare, Palm Grill offers an immersive experience—where history, culture, and cuisine come together in every bite.
